Gymnema sylvestre is the vine whose leaf people chew to dull the taste of sugary food, so the second slice of cake loses its pull.
Cinnamon bark and gynostemma leaf are the traditional table partners of people who watch how a heavy meal sits.
A live Lactobacillus rhamnosus strain at 10 billion cfu per gram keeps friendly flora in the picture.
One in the morning and one with lunch, each with a glass of water. Spacing them keeps the day evenly covered.
Cravings ease gradually; give it a fortnight of regular capsules before deciding whether it suits you.
Both herbs are used around blood sugar, so tell your doctor before combining them with insulin or tablets, and keep logging your readings.
Fifteen capsules at two a day gives about a week, with one capsule extra, so plan your next bottle ahead.
5/5
I sew uniforms in Marikina and sit most of the day, and by mid-afternoon I was always hunting for something sweet. A neighbour who takes Sugar Control gave me the idea.
One capsule when I wake up, one with lunch. I walk around the block after dinner now, and I can leave the biscuits alone for most of the week.
